Rose City Gazette is a Portland-based publication covering local news, politics, culture, and the wonderfully strange moments that make life in the Rose City… unique.
We report on city life, public affairs, arts, trends, and the everyday absurdities that shape modern urban living. Our stories are inspired by real places, real conversations, and real issues — even when they take unexpected or exaggerated turns.
Our goal is simple:
to reflect the spirit of Portland through sharp observation, thoughtful commentary, and humor that feels familiar to anyone who has ever lived here, visited here, or argued about coffee, bike lanes, or city council meetings.
Rose City Gazette exists at the intersection of journalism and storytelling. We believe that humor can be a powerful lens through which to explore civic life, culture, and the shared experiences of a city.
